You may have heard that last weekend we held a tea party with KERA model AKIRA. It was unseasonably cold! Much colder than Japan at this time of year, so we lent AKIRA one of our Fur Layered Long Coats by SEX POT ReVeNGe for the duration of her visit. She wore this jacket to keep warm while transiting around the city before and after her events at our store. As a special thanks she signed the tag with a personal message, and now it's back up on our site and available for sale!

Please note the Leopard x Black Fur color and M Size of this jacket is the only available with AKIRA's special message.

In case you missed the chance to get one in store during our event, we'll now be selling AKIRA's band DISACODE's CD, Ryuu no Hige wo Ari ga Nerau (龍の髭を蟻が狙う), and a special photobook DISTYLE!! Vol. 1 featuring her and band mates Shin and Marcy! Each copy of the photobook is personally autographed by AKIRA! (Note that the CD's are not autographed.) Both items will be sold in store and online while supplies last!

Yesterday we held our Tea Party event with special guest, Japanese model and singer AKIRA! Since we had such a high demand we were able to have two Tea Parties over the course of the day! Lots of fashionable guests were dressed in a variety of styles including Lolita, Ouji, Punk and Gothic fashions.

During the party AKIRA started out by serving tea to our guests and then singing her hit song "Aoki Tsuki Michite", the ending theme from Black Butler: Book of Circus! Then as our guests enjoyed snacks and desserts AKIRA went around to meet and talk with everyone.

We also had a brief Q&A session where guests could ask AKIRA questions and she talked openly on different topics. AKIRA even began asking the guests questions as well! The party ended with single and group photos taken with AKIRA and an autograph session.

We hope everyone enjoyed the event yesterday and thank you for coming! We will be uploading more photos from both tea parties soon (including photos of AKIRA's kabe-don)! For everyone who attended, we'll be sending the group and your individual photos to you directly as well.

Just in time for this weekend's event, we've received a shipment of new items of SEX POT ReVeNGe, including new additions from their Autumn/Winter collection, and many restocks too!

Lots of new parkas and warm winter coats came in this shipment; we could barely fit everything on the racks!

We've received more of SEX POT's annual winter parkas, with new graphic prints and colors. The Feel the Beat Gorgeous Long Parka features a vivid Union Jack logo, in the new loose fit and style of this year's parka design.

This is a quick update for those of you planning to visit our store Saturday for AKIRA's in-store shop staff appearance. Here are some further details:

What it is: Model and vocalist AKIRA will be behind our store counter working as shop staff! She will be wrapping and bagging your purchases and signing autographed cards for those making a purchase. She will also be selling a very limited number of copies of her own book! (We think she'll probably have no problem autographing these if you like as well.)

When it is: Saturday November 22 from 5-7PM.

Price: Free, but we can only guarantee a personal greeting if making a purchase. We will do our best to accommodate those not making purchases after we've satisfied customers making purchases.

Notes: We will be open for regular business from 1-4PM, then closed from 4-5PM to prepare for AKIRA's appearance. We ask that you not line up outside our store until at least 4PM. If you do line up, please keep doorways and other public accessways clear. We will be controlling access to our store from 5-7PM to maintain a safe environment; there may be a bit of a wait to get in. Those making purchases will get priority, so if not making a purchase it may be better to come a little later.

Due to time constraints, we will be limiting access to our changing room during the event. No photos are permitted during this event, and we ask that you be respectful of those behind you in line and not linger after making your purchase or greeting AKIRA. We want everyone to have the chance to meet her.

Just a quick heads-up to let everyone know that tickets for our tea party with AKIRA are completely sold out! We had so many requests that we actually added a second party from 5-7pm, but both events are now full.

Consequently, for those of you not attending either tea party, our store will be closed to general foot traffic all day Sunday.

We also expect a lot of visitors to our free event with AKIRA appearing behind our store counter on Saturday, so we'll be posting some more details about that soon as well. There is no guest list or ticket required for that event, however it will be managed and organized to keep everything under control.

We can't wait to see you there! Of course, if you'd like to beat the crowds or just have a new outfit ready for the weekend, we're open regular hours all week!

We're now ready to announce more details about AKIRA's in-store appearance and events next weekend! Here is the general schedule:Saturday 11/22 5-7PM - AKIRA will be behind our store counter working as shop staff! With each purchase, AKIRA will wrap your items and include an autographed card! Free to attend, however at this event our standard no photos rule remains in effect, and we cannot guarantee access to AKIRA without a purchase.

Note that we will be open from 1-4PM, then closed from 4-5 to prepare for AKIRA's in-store appearance. We ask that anyone wishing to meet AKIRA line up outside no earlier than 4PM. Note also that those making a purchase will have priority - if you're not making a purchase, you will need to wait until the line clears (and we can't guarantee that it will clear before 7PM). More details in a separate blog post here.

Sunday 11/23 2-4PM*and 5-7PM!*- AKIRA tea party at our store! This event will include snacks and beverages, as well as a Q&A session with AKIRA, individual and group photos and a special performance with AKIRA singing her song "Aoki Tsuki Michite", the ending theme from Black Butler: Book of Circus! All attendees will also receive an autographed card.

We've added a second tea party from 5-7PM to satisfy demand! Tickets are now sold out, however we are looking for a few volunteers from the early party to switch to the late party. The late party is less crowded so you will have a more personal experience if you switch. Please contact us if you'd like to switch.

Note that this is a combined Baby, the Stars Shine Bright and Tokyo Rebel event - please only submit one request, as we are pooling our available tickets. Requesting from both stores will not increase your chances.

These and other Victorian maiden items are available for purchase now both in store and online. Pay us a visit and check them out soon, or check out our New Arrivals page for all the new and restocked products!

Clear your calendars! The weekend before Thanksgiving, KERA and Gothic & Lolita Bible model and now Sony recording artist AKIRA will be appearing in our store! We'll be announcing details of the events later, but there will be more than one chance to meet her - and maybe even a surprise or two for fans of her music (or Black Butler)!

Hey guys, Kitsy here! Welcome to this week's coordinate post. This week me and Tara picked coordinates from Innocent World and SEX POT ReVeNGe! You can find all these items in our store and online.

Using some items from our latest Innocent World shipment, I chose this classic lolita coordinate. Here I paired the Napoleon Jacket with the Ellen Clapsaddle Skirt. The jacket is a great staple for chilly autumn weather, and the cut fits perfectly for wear with lolita. The lovely bordeaux and beige colors of the jacket compliment those of the skirt, which stands out with it's vivid illustrations. I paired these with a matching Embossed Logo 3 Way Pochette as well!

Tara here! For my look I put together a SEX POT ReVeNGe coordinate using some of our new Autumn/Winter items! I wanted to put together a punk look with a splash of color to break up all the usual black! The Fuck Berry Shirring Long Sleeve cutsew has a loud punk design in red which I paired with the Garter Crash Asymmetry skirt, also in red. To have another layer for the cold weather I added the Gorgeous Long parka, in the red fur colorway to keep with the theme's pop color! To complement the studs of the parka and add to the punk spirit I used the Harness Skull Necklace as a final touch!

We've just received a new shipment of SEX POT ReVeNGe from their Autumn/Winter collection!

This shipment includes lots of warm sweaters and long sleeve cutsews including the Two-tone Rock Pullover knit as shown here in blue. Also on display here is the new Asymmetry Bondage Long Skirt, with a long a flowy distressed look.

It's also that time of the year for SEX POT's annual winter parkas! This years' variation, the Gorgeous Long Parka, has a long loose silhouette, decorative belted sleeves, and a wired strung hood which includes the traditional fake fur zipoff!

Included with every SEX POT ReVeNGe purchase will be the newest issue, vol. 29, of V!NYL SYNDICATE! This issue showcases the new Autumn/Winter clothes on SEX POT's shop staff as well as featured musicians including Re:NO and her band Aldious!
